Full cheek snaffle - Stübben

The Stübben double-jointed full cheek bit is particularly suitable for training young horses or horses needing more precise lateral guidance. The full cheeks help with steering and flexion work while providing greater stability in the rider’s rein aids.

The double-jointed mouthpiece distributes pressure evenly across the tongue and bars without creating a nutcracker effect or pressure on the palate. The central lozenge improves overall comfort and encourages better bit acceptance.

Available in a fully stainless steel version or with a Sweet Copper center lozenge, this bit allows the contact to be adapted to the horse’s sensitivity. The Sweet Copper naturally encourages chewing and salivation to promote relaxation of the jaw.

The full cheeks effectively frame the horse’s mouth and limit lateral movement of the bit. This configuration provides more direct and stable aids, especially useful for starting young horses or lunge work.

The Stübben STEELtec finish features ergonomic shaping and rounded ring connection areas to reduce the risk of pinching and improve comfort in the horse’s mouth.

Stainless steel : Stainless steel is a commonly used alloy which has the particularity of not oxidising. Due to their nature, stainless steel jaws are very strong and do not get damaged over time.

Sweet Copper : The central part is made of Sweet Copper. It is made of 90% solid copper, 7% iron and 3% aluminium. It gives off a pleasant flavour for the horse when it comes into contact with its mouth, encouraging it to chew and salivate, thus relaxing its jaw.
